OMG the Ball looks like so much fun!

I'll take a look at your play list. Where's it at?

Gosh I would go to that.

Of course, having me show up would make it lose 50% of its cache. . .

The idea was to combine all the aspects of Ball (the original 1880s french party we're copying, the downtown art "scenes" of yore, the world of fashion and glamor and excess) and mesh it all together AND have it flow from mood to mood easily and be good background music. Here's the first bit - which is supposed to be easy and light and quiet
